A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Effect of trace SF6 on negative corona characteristics in SF6/N2 gas mixtures under DC voltages
Corona discharge will affect the performance of insulating gas, threatening the safe and reliable operation of gas-insulated power equipment. In this paper, we investigate the negative corona characteristics in SF6/N2 gas mixtures with trace SF6 [φ(SF6) ≤

Board Networks and Corporate Carbon Emissions: A Cross‐Country Analysis of Causal Effects
ABSTRACT This study examines whether board networks influence corporate carbon emissions and the strategic pathways through which firms decarbonize. Using a sample of 1952 firms across 48 countries from 2003 to 2020, we employ dynamic stacked regressions that exploit exogenous carbon‐regulation shocks affecting firms connected through shared third ...

Engineering nano-trap distribution in metal-organic frameworks enables boost of SF6/N2 separation
Separating/capturing SF6, having the strongest global warming potential, from exhaust gas with low concentration (1%–10%) in the power industry is significant for both greenhouse gas emission control and SF6 recycling and reutilization. In this study, we

Ultra‐High‐Efficiency On‐Chip CO2 Conversion by Nanosecond Self‐Pulsing Micro‐Plasma Devices
A micro‐plasma chip with sub‐10‐μm electrode gaps is introduced for efficient CO2‐to‐CO conversion. The device self‐converts a DC power supply into nanosecond pulses, producing field‐emission electrons that vibrationally excite CO2, driving dissociation via the ladder‐climbing mechanism. A scaled‐up chip array achieves 30% single‐pass conversion and 50%
